I'm actually very centrist; I don't want to eat the rich.
After all, I'm a vegan and think that anyone involved in the meat industry should be put in jail.
So, dead center. That's me.
What if we grind the rich into a tasty and nutritious feed for the animals? Everyone wins
Ok, but what if it wasn't meat industry, but rather self-organized community eating of the rich?
bing vegan is the most left thing there is
Not really. I see you're from feddit.de, so you must also know about the esoteric scene slipping into alt-right communities with the pandemic. I'm sure there are plenty of vegans with pretty conservative views.
This post is at least one example, even if it's not a German esoteric.
if u think of being left bing against forms of hierarchies, then abolishing hierarchies that benefit beings that are not even human is the most left thing you can go. just because there are people that don't follow their own morals to all regards, doesn't mean it ain't right.
I think being left in essence means wanting basic human rights for everyone. I don't see how that's about hierarchies or what you eat.
It's always funny to me when regressives try to put themselves on the political spectrum.
